Whut?

Dr_Xadium 05/11/2018
A programmer walks into a bar and orders 1.000000119 root beers.

Texas Samurai 05/11/2018
That's a strange amount O_O

Dr_Xadium 05/11/2018
It gets better.

The bartender says, "I'm gonna have to charge you extra; that's a root beer float". And the programmer says, "Well in that case make it a double!".

...Ah ain't followin'.

That is a brilliant pun.

Texas Samurai 05/11/2018
Where's th' pun, Ah'm missin' it.

Mizunomics01 05/11/2018
In programming, a float value has has 23 mantissa bits + 1 hidden bit: log(2²⁴)/log(10), or 7.22 digits, whereas a "double" has 52 mantissa bits + 1 hidden bit: log(2⁵³)/log(10), or 15.95 digits. So because there were nine digits after the decimal, it was not a "float" value, so not a root beer "Float" but a "double" root beer.

...Well when you explain it like that, Ah feel like Ah should laugh, Ah guess...

Dr_Xadium 05/11/2018
Oh, it's a knee-slapper.

Texas Samurai 05/11/2018
